Telepresence.io Traffic Manager Excessive Client-side Kubernetes API ThrottlingOne or more cluster components (kubectl sessions, operators, controllers, CI/CD jobs, etc.) hit the **default client-side rate-limiter in client-go** (QPS = 5, Burst = 10). The client logs messages such as `Waited for <N>s due to client-side throttling, not priority and fairness` and delays each request until a token is available. Although the API server itself may still have spare capacity, and Priority & Fairness queueing is not the bottleneck, end-user actions and controllers feel sluggish or appear to “stall”.Kubernetes Problemstraffic-managerKubernetesTelepresenceTraffic ManagerAPI Throttling

Telepresence agent-injector certificate reload failureTelepresence 2.5.x versions suffer from a critical TLS handshake error between the mutating webhook and the agent injector. When the certificate is rotated or regenerated, the agent-injector pod fails to reload the new certificate, causing all admission requests to fail with \"remote error: tls: bad certificate\". This effectively breaks the traffic manager's ability to inject the agent into workloads, preventing Telepresence from functioning properly.Kubernetes Problemstraffic-managerKnown ProblemTelepresenceKubernetesCertificate
